that's a giant list, so you'd instead need a GIANT HOSTS FILE
One of the keys to the ABP filters is that it isn't just a list of hosts, but rather a list of regexes that describe ads. This allows you to display actual content from a site without displaying the ads.
No, I live in America, and never felt in any way constrained by any part of the Patriot Act.
That's because you haven't seen the effects directly, yet. Once the investigation is further along, you'll see how badly your rights are going to get trampled on.
What's that...you say you've never done anything to warrant investigation? That's exactly the same as many of the people on the No Fly List. And, you're not one of the nearly 10 million US citizens who are three steps away from a "selector"? So far, then, you've been lucky.
It's good that the Samsung 840 Pro is holding up so well (its predecessor the 830 was also ridiculously durable) but it's now replaced by the 850 Pro which uses radical new technology (stacked chips).
I suspect the 10 year warranty for the 850 Pro is a good indicator of how long Samsung expects it to last compared to the 840 Pro (which has a 5 year warranty).
It really has to be used for something like database access or a file server or the like before endurance becomes an issue.
Even that isn't enough, because the drives in the test are being written essentially 24/7 (with just a little time off for the retention tests), and the drives remaining have been at it for 15 months.
You have to have an insanely busy database or file server to never have any time off from writes.
Since EA started bundling their games with Origin, I have consistently chosen option (i) and will continue to do so in the future.
Same for me an Ubisoft. I liked Far Cry 1 and 2, but still haven't bought 3 because it requires Uplay and that you always be online to play.
I have plenty of other games to play (and spend my money on) that don't require painful DRM. Until enough people vote with their wallets, DRM is here to stay, despite not really stopping copying of software.
Define "CPU-intensive". How many execution units are we talking about here? It's pretty easy today to have a quad core with HT, and I haven't seen any game use more than 4 of the available 8 execution units on that setup. As long as streaming only needs a couple, you should be fine.
On the other hand, the network card might kill the CPU with interrupts when playing plus sending out the stream (especially an online game), but that would be a network driver issue, not really CPU.
See these people who managed to get dual screen working..
...but are too lazy too write up a step-by-step guide that you can print out to use because you can't get your monitor working enough to watch a YouTube video.
Any time a search for "how to" for a computer task returns a YouTube video, I give up and figure it out myself. I don't want to waste time watching 20 minutes of "uh, well, see here we..." just to get to the "edit config.ini and add 'foo=1'" to the end.
In the US, at least, you're required to keep your car's current registration card in the vehicle; that has your address on it.
There is no US federal government law that says this. You might have a state law that says this, but it doesn't really mean it.
What it means is that the registration has to be in the car while it is being driven on a public road. I keep my vehicle registration in my wallet, and my wife has a copy in her purse. Since we are never without those when driving, our cars are legal.
And as for TFA and reducing what's in your wallet, I hope the writer never has to do anything involving health insurance, as without that card, you are generally out of luck.
You likely don't have to write to the game's installation directory for many hacks.
Most games support add-ons that can be installed per-user, so that means someplace the user can write to. Whether that level of hack would be enough to "cheat", I don't know. I do know that it can give you an advantage, though, by causing unimportant things to not be drawn on screen.
Or, possibly a sysadmin who can't figure out how to add a "nofail" option in/etc/fstab.
Or, possibly a systemd designer who should have created the software to be compatible with current practice and have "nofail" be the default, with "fail" having to be manually added to change behavior.
You can only get 15K rpm drives at most at 600GB in size. At about $280 for those disks ($0.47/GB), SSDs are a complete win.
You can get a very solid 1TB SSD for $450, which is cheaper per GB ($0.45) and much, much faster. You can get a serious enterprise 1TB SSD (10-year warranty) for $550. You may have racks of 15K rpm drives, but they are truly outdated dinosaurs: slow and plodding, and expensive to feed and care for.
I don't know anything about this so-called "sport", but it sounds to me as if people bring their own machines to these events. This is a very curable problem. Get Alienware to sponsor the event with hardware which gets sent back to them at the end.
This isn't a bad idea, but you still have to allow peripherals to be brought in, since part of the player skill is likely their mouse and keyboard.
Then, you have to give the player time to config the game to their liking (mouse sensitivity, hotkeys, etc.). With all that going on, it might be pretty easy to slip in a hack of some kind.
We needed a new car back in 2012 and we decided on a 2012 Ford Escape.
Most of your complaints can be fixed with various tweaks listed in the manuals. For example, you don't have to listen to chimes because the key is in the switch. As for Sync, update the software (easy to do with a download to any USB stick) and you should be able to connect any Android at least for voice, but your phone has to support a later level of Bluetooth to support reading/sending texts using the car.
I can't help you on your satellite drop outs, as that's caused by brain-dead placement of the antenna by Ford. No, that thing sticking up at the back of your car is not the satellite antenna. The sat antenna is pretty much inside your glove compartment.
What I'd expect is that the boxes where the ads were will be empty, but the layout of the website (tailored originally around those boxes) will be identical.
Competent CSS will result in the boxes being gone and the page re-flowing.
The Firefox add-on Stylish allows you to do this with any web site. I do it with Slashdot to make the comments fill my browser from left to right margin.
I don't really have an opinion on it, myself, but it seems to me that all of the arguments against systemd are based on factual errors (e.g., that it's monolithic, and therefore not UNIXy) and inertia, or on defects that are clearly just packaging/configuration bugs.
Read the rest of this comments and you'll find plenty of real bugs (su bugs when using systemd-logind, failure to mount degraded btrfs, etc.) that are treated by the systemd developers as "NOTABUG". Likewise, if the packagers can't get the configuration right, how do you expect end users to figure it out?
And, systemd is monolithic. Sure, it's a bunch of separate executables, but you need to run them all together or things break, which makes it all or nothing. And, yes, I keep hearing about "no, you can use any ntpd/logind/whateverd you want...you don't need to use the systemd version", but nobody has ever given an example of how to do this that doesn't involve keeping the systemd version at least installed on your system, and sometimes running beside your preferred version.
Having actually read what systemd does, I'm looking forward to seeing it on my machines.
The PR for systemd far exceeds the utility you actually gain. For some very limited sets of configuration, systemd offers features that just can't be done otherwise (or easily). Most of those cases are so convoluted that nobody ever wanted to do them anyway.
The one good thing that systemd does offer (better job control) is far offset by the design that makes it painful to configure anything that isn't standard, and even more painful to debug when something goes wrong. Examples of "something going wrong" often seem to include failure to mount a filesystem. Leaving out network security settings, this was almost always fixed before by editing/etc/fstab, typing "mount/foo" and moving on. Today, "mount/foo" invokes some systemd component to parse your/etc/fstab and do what it thinks you want done. Since it is impossible for systemd to know every option to every filesystem (and how they interact), this almost always means that systemd doesn't do what you really want (and what/etc/fstab says should happen).
I've used systemd, and it's painful and ugly, mainly because the documentation is either bad or non-existent. I suspect that right about the that RedHat 6 support is ending, systemd will finally be ready for production use.
it was filmed, with not a giant slug but a slightly overweight guy wearing (among other things) animal furs. It was cut because GL had formed the idea of Jabba being the giant slug for Jedi but he didn't want to reshoot the scene, so it was simply cut.
I think it was rightfully cut because it has the exact same dialog as the Greedo scene, and doesn't add anything to the story.
The Greedo scene, OTOH, shows Han to be a "the only fair fight is one I win" kind of guy, which makes him coming to help Luke at the Death Star even more important to his character.
With the Cost of Cars going up and up and becoming unattainable for many
I don't know if the price of a car is really a factor compared to previous years.
Today, about $14K will get you a new car that works fine for the daily commute. And, although you could have gotten a similar "entry-level" car in 2000 for the the same price adjusted for inflation (about $10K), that car would have a lot fewer standard features than today's cars. And, $10K in pay at the minimum wage rate in 2000 would be $14K today.

Where I work, everyone's voice mail is full because the voice mail system sends them an e-mail with the message as an attachment.
Everyone listens to the message (and acts on it if necessary), but nobody deletes the message from the voice mail system.
4: You have to remember which way you displaced your hands. Also, john and crack both have rules for that.
Rules/mutations/whatever in password crackers don't increase their chance of a hit if the base password isn't in their dictionary.
Even so, the "slide" trick adds two bits of entropy to the password.

Yes, and at 85mph, hitting that elk is a) far more likely to occur and b) far more likely to be fatal.
As far as hitting wandering creatures goes, there is no real-world difference (in either chance or damages caused) between driving 60mph and 85mph.
The problem is that once PC is turned on, there is not much use for the SSD speed.
Ever tried loading the next level in a game? SSDs make a big difference.
And, you've completely forgotten all the other uses (both enterprise and personal) like database, video editing, running VMs, etc.
You can only get 15K rpm drives at most at 600GB in size. At about $280 for those disks ($0.47/GB), SSDs are a complete win.

That all those triple flip, spinning, no look, cross map headshots were actually people NOT using a hack.. ROFLOL...
All of them, no, I don't, as I watched someone repeatedly do something very similar using the stock Xbox controller.
I saw his character jump from one platform, spin and kill with a rocket launcher, then keep spinning and land on the platform across the gap.

He just doesn't know about some niche system from 40 years ago.
PLATO was many things, but not "niche".
I'm the same age as the SecEd, didn't go to "prestige" schools like he did, and still had access to systems running PLATO.
